After Liu Bei joined Liu Biao, where he was sent to serve as a shield against Cao Cao?

  • Xinye

  • Xiakou

  • Jingzhou

  • Beihai

Answer

Xinye, the answer to the question, was strategically significant as a buffer zone against Cao Cao's impending advances. Liu Bei's appointment to Xinye reflected Liu Biao's recognition of Liu Bei's military prowess and his desire to strengthen his defenses. This decision proved crucial in delaying Cao Cao's southern ambitions, setting the stage for future conflicts and realignments among warlords in the Three Kingdoms era.
